TV Show Analysis

Choose a television series that features schooling in some way. It can be a sitcom, a drama, a cartoon, or a “reality” show. (Hulu and Netflix are great sources for this. You can watch the episode over and over if you need to revisit the material). In a 3-page essay, comment critically on the portrayal of education in the show.
Some ideas to explore with respect to the characters:
• Stereotypes about certain kinds of students
• Power dynamics between students and teachers
• Bullying
• How gender/race/class/ethnicity/disability shapes school experiences
